Human computer interaction have transformed over the years from a traditional mouse-keyboard user interaction to 2D windows-based user interfaces with the advent of visual computing technologies. “What about the future?” One may ask. How is human computer interaction going to change? Today in this article, we shall explore the various different kinds of outstanding developments in the field of user experience design which can become ubiquitous over the next years.
The Future for Innovative Content: The Cheoptics360 Experience
What Cheoptics360?
Cheoptics360’s free-floating video display surrounds viewers with a 360 degree paranormal outlook of revolving 3d video images that can be seen at every perspective and in all lighting conditions. It utilizes projections from four different 3d projectors and the images projected are then re-assembled and re-generated in a transparent prism-like pyramid chamber that displays these free-floating videos in mid-air.
Cheoptics360 in action!
Resembling 3d holograms seen in sci-fi and futuristic movies, such technologies are already being readily deployed in commercial tradeshows, electronic retail stores and events world-wide. Cheoptics360 created a dramatically different user experience and platform for creative product show reels, breaking away from traditional videos and images slideshows by wowing viewers with a truly innovative experience.
Cheoptics360 opens up new horizons and opportunities for content delivery in the future such as games system, television and cinematic experience and educational channels.
Whether it is immersing yourself in a realistic 360 degree battlefield in your favourite First-Person Shooter Games or watching the World Cup from the point of view of your idol Brazilian midfielder, Cheoptics360 promises a vastly different dimension of content viewing, presentation and interactivity we can expect in the near future.
Photosynth
Harnessing millions of still images culled from the websites such as Flickr, Facebook and other social networking sites, Photosynth rebuilds breathtaking dreamscapes such as the Notre Dame Cathedral computationally through massive collection of 2d images and mapping them onto a 3d paranormal plane.
PhotoSynth even analyzes images such as a poster picture of Notre Dame Cathedral in its creation of the 3d paranormal plane!
As quoted from the official website of Photosynth, Synths are entirely new visual mediums which analyze and compare each photo for similarities to the others and builds visual model of where the photos are taken before recreating the environment and canvas for display. Users can navigate multi-dimensional spaces with zoom and navigation features.
Microsoft PhotoSynth harness collective memory of the masses by culling images from satellite photos and social networking sites such Flickr, Facebook community and re-create them in 3d computational space.
Throughout many decades and evolution of computing technologies, brilliant imageries of advanced interfaces seen in Hollywood futuristic sci-fi or action packed movies like the Iron Man, and Minority Report are perhaps no longer just distant dreams and fertile imagination of scriptwriters far from the reach of humanity.
Computer Vision and visual computing has constantly unlocked new perspectives and perhaps changed the way in which we can view and interact with the environment around us, making today’s vision into tomorrow’s reality.
